ABSTRACT:
A hanger and a keeper secured thereto for simultaneously supporting and retaining multiple electrical power rails in spaced apart parallel coplanar alignment. To construct a multi-phase power distribution system for use with a vehicle equipped with multiple single-phase power collector shoes respectively operable with the power rails, a plurality of hangers are mountable from respective ground support elements along and at a common predetermined height from a predetermined vehicle travel path or guideway. Following positioning of the guide rails on the hangers, the keepers are secured thereto so as to simultaneously retain the power rails on their hangers in operative relation with the power collector shoes. With this construction, multiple power rails may be provided in operative relation with the power collector shoes without individual adjustment.
